Who wins and why?

No winner in CCH v St H game... 0-0 tie. CCH plays with a Missing 9 (variant of Barca's False 9), has 80% possession and a ton of good looks, but just can't finish. St Henry also looks good with possession estimated at 60%. In contrast, the Scott v Highlands game is a goal/card-fest with aggregate possession less than 50% and both the final goal and card count at 4-3. No way to know winner in advance.

Note: my former post was employing the literary technique known as hyperbole. I only mention this because some don't recognize it when they read it.

Sir, I also enjoyed your use of the Vulgate.

I also enjoyed your alliteration with the "no way to know...." Line

Wrong! There will be a winner. I tire of being wrong all the time.

My prediction for the CCH / st Henry game is for long uncut grass. It benefits st Henry .......I am thinking that the lawn mover suddenly breaks down .....

OK Goldilocks... what length would you like the grass cut to?

Have someone come over to my house and we can cut my yard to get to that perfect length......

 

It is what I would do if I were them....kind of like how krumps keeps the baseball diamond thick to catch the bunts.....1

Who wins and why?

 

Can't make a call on the CCH vs ST Henry match up, I am not sure who CCH is up against, that was all kept under wraps last weekend.

 

I think that Scott will get the best of Highlands in the other matchup. I see Scott being too strong up front and feel that Highlands will struggle to contain them. I will go with Scott 3 - Highlands 1.

Let me know if you need help... I have a Stimpmeter.

CCH and Scott.

 

If CCH does fail to score again. Could be a disappointing year for them. And that's not a slight to St. H. CCH put up 3 against them last year.

 

Yellowcard stole my thunder. 3-1 Scott.

I'd agree that Scott will beat Highlands but I think it's more like 4-2 or 4-3. Hard to gauge CCH/St. Henry. Colonels have not been on grass all year, they are slow-footed in the back (some fast defenders on JV....) and the scoring issues of course. On the other hand, CCH dominated St. Henry in regionals last year with a much less technically competent team. St. Henry has a little speed up top but if the Colonels don't give up any dumb goals or break aways they should win.

Colonels are up 4-0 on the Cru.

5-0 CCH as of 25 minutes ago. Goals by Ballow (2), Pohlaben, Thieman, and Stegman.
